Major upgrade of the WebAsyst Files service

Vladimir V. Tuporshin — November 20, 2008

Today we have released a new version of Files.

This is not just another upgrade, this is a new product!

New WebAsyst Files

Works several times faster

The latest version of Files utilizes a new WebAsyst kernel. With this new kernel all data (folders tree, file lists, files themselves) are transferred from the server’s side much faster than in the old version of Files. On the client’s side, almost all user actions in the main screen of the service are implemented using javascript and AJAX without page reloading.

New user interface

In the new user interface we repositioned all control elements and important information in the most suitable and prominent places. Menus which contain access to actions with files and folders are now residing “close” to the objects to which these actions are related. Menus themselves became “live”; i.e., they immediately display a result on user’s click, or a prompt to enter additional information if necessary.

Quick links to files or folders

Only one click is now required to get a link to any file or entire folder. Address (URL) of this link is immediately available on the screen and is ready for emailing or publishing in blog. Previously created links are as easy to remove if access to these files must be revoked.

New version of Files is already on the WebAsyst server. Just login to your account and try it, or create new account.

WebAsyst Software (PHP scripts) buyers can download new version from their Customer Center account.

  1. Upgrade? So how come the download section still shows a file with date 18/8/2008.
    Very confusing!

  2. 18.08 is the date of Shop-Script update, not WebAsyst Files application.

  8. This upgrade as of January 2009 is so far the best, most stable and most installable upgrade of Webasyst. The user-interface is vastly improved and a pleasure to work with. The complete feature-set along with the price makes this product the best I have seen for file-handling.
